Doesn’t seem like a good time to fuck with border control.

Not saying I’d do it. Just proposing a hypothetical.

Because they care about the value of the item, not what you paid for it.
Because they’re not stupid, and stupid people have been trying to find easy loop holes forever.

Do you have to declare your car if you drive across the border?
OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
No because you brought it over with you. You only declare things you bring back that you didn’t have when you left.

You can do whatever you like, I’m just explaining the rules. Whether you get caught or not is up to how reckless you’re being.

If you walk over the border, or use another form of transport (plane, bus or taxi), then return in a car. Yes, you’re importing at that point.

Because it’s the law, that is why it’s a crime.
